I've now read the first four volumes of Charlie's "Merchant Princes" series - which is to say that, in his original plan, I'm halfway through book 2. Unfortunately, I don't have copies of volumes five and six, and the Oxfordshire libraries website informs me that the only copies available on-shelf are in Witney, Henley, and Banbury, all of which are about as far away from me as it's possible to get while remaining within Oxlib. So if anyone is able to lend me "Trade of Queens" and "The Revolution Business", I'd be very grateful. Otherwise I'll just have to keep an eye out and wait for the city library copies to be in.

On a faintly related note, one of our local charity shops has a copy of the UK paperback of "Saturn's Children" for a pound, if anyone needs it? (I picked up a near-mint hardback of said book in the same shop for 50p a month or so ago. No, I don't understand their pricing either.)

Do they really count "fetch it from another branch" as ILL rather than just a reservation? I'm surprised at that...

The other four I could do, but my copy of Revolution Business is in Edinburgh, and TOQ was on the "buy when in the US this summer" list, so both are out from this end!
